Cisco Secure Workload Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Director, Head of Networks at MUFG, EMEA5.0We use Cisco Secure Workload primarily for micro-segmentation to protect internal servers and streamline policy discovery, valuing its automation and granular control. We initially considered Nutanix and ESX but chose Cisco for its agnostic, comprehensive solution.
Technical Solutions Architect - Cyber & Cloud Security Expert at Secure Cloud4.5Cisco Secure Workload is primarily effective for micro-segmentation by proposing policies and managing traffic flows, though it needs improvement in supporting diverse FTP servers and IBM AIX systems. The tool excels in policy creation and network restructuring.
Partner at a consultancy with 1-10 employees3.5I was once a fan of Cisco Secure Workload, but changes have made it less appealing. While it effectively identifies vulnerabilities and uses firewalls for micro-segmentation, its integration into Cisco SD-Access has increased costs and limited its standalone appeal.
Regional Presales Consultant (INS Division) at GBM3.5I use Secure Workload for micro-segmentation. Its end-to-end offering, stability, and scalability are good, but I find it complicated with an unintuitive dashboard. Setup was straightforward, and support is responsive. I recommend it.
Sales Manager at Compuequip DOS4.0I find this solution stable, user-friendly, and scalable, with good technical support. However, its integration with other solution types could be improved. Overall, I rate it eight out of ten.
Solutions Architect at Liberty Global4.5I found Cisco Tetration excellent for micro-segmentation and application visibility, with straightforward setup and no stability issues. While scalable, I wish it offered a single pane of glass to avoid overlap with other tools.
Technical Presales at Vcom Technologies4.5I use Cisco Secure Workload for data communication and consultancy for ECS. The product's valuable feature is its multiple-device integration, but it needs cloud integration. I didn't consider other solutions and have no specific ROI or cloud provider details.
CTO at a tech vendor with 11-50 employees4.0I find its complete telemetry and stability excellent. However, the solution significantly lacks enterprise-grade multi-tenancy, monitoring, redundancy, and scalability, restricting its operational capabilities despite a straightforward initial setup.
